angor wat/bannlyst
This is a split-cassette got two great bands. It was the most important release in 1984, and the two bands; Bannlyst (Molde) and Angor Wat (Trondheim) are better known because of their vinyl releases. Bannlyst did a 7”EP in the year after called “La Dem Ikke Lure Deg” from Export Plater, and Angor Wat did an LP called “General Strike”.

The side with Bannlyst contains 14 great songs, and the quality of the recordings are good, although only recorded in their practise room the autumn 83/January 84. The side with Angor Wat has 9 good songs recorded in studio in July 1983(?) The lyrics are very political, but you can’t hear them. The lyrics are fortunately printed on the cover.

A review from GATEAVISA #106 (1/85) said:”The side with Angor Wat is absolutely the favorite of mine and has a meaningfull existence. They play something like a progressive and sometimes creative punk from the old school, and surely are doing active peacework. Bannlyst sounds US HC-like up to date. They also have good material, but I’m not in the mood for that. Also their concert on Blitz from last year shall be mentioned.” (T Robsahm)
The release was done by Angor Wats label, Knall Tapes. And it's great a great release too.
